Identification of agonistic and antagonistic antibodies against gp190, the leukemia inhibitory factor receptor, reveals distinct roles for its two cytokine-binding domains.
The receptor for the cytokine leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) associates the low affinity binding component gp190 and the high affinity converter gp130, both of which are members of the family of hematopoietic receptors characterized by the cytokine receptor homology (CRH) domain. The gp190 is among the very few members of this large family to contain two CRH domains. The membrane-distal one (...
متن کاملCloning and characterization of a specific receptor for mouse oncostatin M.
Oncostatin M (OSM) is a member of a family of cytokines that includes ciliary neurotrophic factor, interleukin-6, interleukin-11, cardiotrophin-1, and leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF). The receptors for these cytokines consist of a common signaling subunit, gp130, to which other subunits are added to modify ligand specificity. We report here the isolation and characterization of a cDNA encoding...
متن کاملThe Role of Glycoprotein 130 Family of Cytokines in Fetal Rat Lung Development
The glycoprotein 130 (gp130) dependent family of cytokines comprises interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-11, leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), cardiotrophin-like cytokine (CLC), ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF), cardiotrophin-1 (CT-1) and oncostatin M (OSM). These cytokines share the membrane gp130 as a common signal transducer. Recently, it was demonstrated that IL-6 promotes, whereas LIF inhibits feta...
متن کامل3 CNTF and Related Neurokines
Ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) is a member of the neurokine family of cytokines with actions on multiple cell types of the nervous system. CNTF shares a common gp130 receptor subunit with the other neurokines, leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), interleukin‐11 (IL‐11), cardiotrophin‐1 (CT‐1), oncostatin‐M (OSM), cardiotrophin‐like cytokine (CLC), and neuropoietin. Neurok...
متن کاملCardiotrophin-1 in heart failure.
Cardiotrophin-1 (CT-1) is a 201 amino acid 1 member of the interleukin (IL)-6 cytokine superfamily, which includes leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), ciliary neurotrophic factor, IL-11, and oncostatin M.2 Cardiotrophin-1 was discovered by Pennica et al2 via expression cloning of mouse embryoid bodies, using a cardiac myocyte hypertrophy screen to identify positive clones. CT-1 has hypertrophic a...
